"We
must find the freedom to step over our wounds and the courage to forgive those
who have wounded us. The real danger is to get stuck in anger and resentment.
Then we start living as ‘the wounded one,’ always complaining that life isn’t
‘fair.’

Jesus came to save us from these
self-destructive complaints. He says: ‘Let go of your complaints, forgive those
who loved you poorly, step over your feelings of being rejected, and have the
courage to trust that you won’t fall into an abyss of nothingness but into the
safe embrace of a God whose love will heal all your wounds.'"
